    Hi there have you tried radionics.ie if you know the spec of the capacitor you can order online or call into the shop and show them.

    I am not from dublin myself so i cant help you, but there is directions on the website .

    Hope it helps and let us know how you get on hope the capacitor blewing wasnt too scary :( When i was in college a fella beside me messing had a brown trouser moment with one:eek:

    Backi in the college days there was a place near sundrive garda station where i used to get parts for electronic projects - cant erm whether it was radionics or farnell... And not sure if its still there.

    Farnell deliver too - but its been a while since i used them - not sure what the charges are.

    Electromotors in Glasnevin Industrial Estate would be a good place to start

    I did try RS in Dublin who had the capacitor @ 34 cent but they only sold them in 5s its less than 2 euro no big deal but they then told me that as I did not have an account with them I would have to spend a minimum of 15 euro if I wanted the part.
